Seal (1991)

Produced by Trevor Horn, Seal’s debut record featured the single Crazy, which reached No 1 worldwide. Curt played on and did the drum programming for all the album’s tracks.

Curt Bisquera says:

“I believe the combination of programming and live drumming gave that record its unique, punchy and highly danceable sound.”

“A lot of what you hear on that album is me playing my parts on the Drum Kat, the electronic tool of that day. What people today may not know is that, back then, what is now called Pro-Tools was called Sound-Tools, stereo audio files manipulated by computer. Trevor Horn was on the cutting-edge of the technology.”

“After we finished the recording, I ended up playing a few shows with Seal but never actually toured, since I got busy in town with more recording projects.”
